Guilty Gear Xrd REV 2 PS4 Game Slated for May 26 in N. America

Aksys Games and Arc System Works announced this Thursday that Guilty Gear Xrd REV 2 will launch in North America on May 26. The game will be available in both physical and digital versions for the PlayStation 4. Those who own Guilty Gear Xrd Revelator already on PS4 or PlayStation 3 will be able to pay a lower price to update their game to Guilty Gear Xrd Rev 2.

This release of the game will include all of the DLC available for Guilty Gear Xrd Revelator, and will include new story chapters for Jam Kuradoberi, Kum Haehyun, Raven, Dizzy, Answer, and Baiken.

Arc System Works plans to release the game in arcades this spring in Japan, and then for PS4 and PS3 on May 25. The company has also announced a release for PC via Steam. The Japanese home console version will also add a new scenario to the story mode.

The game will feature the new characters Answer (voiced by Tomokazu Seki) and Baiken (voiced by Mayumi Asano). The new game will also feature balance modifications such as new techniques for previous playable characters.
